Cleaner country

Today the story of the Malaysian community coming together as one was created. Many Malaysian from all over the world has marched in their own ways: through prayers, network, physically and emotionally.

BERSIH 2.0 is an non-governmental organization which had proposed CLEAN and FAIR elections.

Bersih 2.0′s calls consist of 8 points. In summary, they are:
1. Clean the electoral roll
2. Reform postal ballot
3. Use of indelible ink
4. Minimum 21 days campaign period
5. Free and fair access to media
6. Strengthen public institutions
7. Stop corruption
8. Stop dirty politics

Many people would have a lot of says about this country's politics. In mamak, restaurant, anywhere, people would have a say about this country. However, today on the 9th July 2011 we had seen otherwise. Many Malaysian had raised up to learn to take a stand for their own country. This country was meant to be a democratic country. A country which allows opinions of the people.

The process of reaching to 9th July 2011 was difficult. Many news that was post up was heartbreaking. Although many obstacles had been placed throughout this journey, many people had come together to stand united in prayer or physically.

Kudos to BERSIH 2.0 team which had caused people to rise up to stand on what it meant for a CLEAN AND FAIR elections.



May we as WATCHMEN continue to pray for Malaysia. A big change is going to happen in this country. People from every generations: youngsters to young adults to adults and including the older folks: be ready!! We have to be equipped and ready. The hardworks that were poured out may one day be rewarded.
